And I've heard the later ones saw relatively light use because the use of the 8 gauge for waterfowl was outlawed shortly after many of them left the factory.

the 8 gauge i got from mills seen a whole lot of use and abuse...tellem about it mills...i use to keep up with every parker 8 ga that i heard of..i wish i had kept up with them but i did not but i know for sure there are over 100 8 ga s still out there...i feel like there is 85 percent of them still around....charlie

If it was 1918 I'd send an 8 back to Parker and see if they would rebarrel it to a 28. Just to see if they'd do it.
|
Mine is 1913 and there is a set of 10 gauge barrels out there somewhere.
|
mills i hope you find that set of barrels..to me that would be a perfect gun a 8 ga and10 ga rolled up in one...i hope them 10 ga barrels are 36 inch for sure.... charlie

They are 32 inches. I am afraid I will find it and the guy will want a fortune for it

I have an eight that was rebarrelled to 3 1/2" ten. It is fully provenanced to a family from Nebraska. I live in Maryland where no one quit using their eights until they couldn't get ammunition. On the east side of the Chesapeake Bay, there are still a few guns in use that are a bit bigger than eights.

LOL's From what I've been hearing about the snow geese on the Eastern Shore the last couple years you would think they might relax the rules a touch just for the snows ! |
